Pierre Thuillier (Amiens, June 17, 1799 - Paris, November 19, 1858) was a French painter.

Biography

Pierre Thuillier was a landscape painter, first a pupil of Louis Étienne Watelet then belonging to the School of Barbizon. He carried out his first artistic activity in the region of Amiens and around the Forest of Fontainebleau between 1831 and 1832. As a young apprentice at the atelier of Watelet he met Théodore Caruelle d'Aligny and left with him later to work in Italy. Later he often stayed in Germany, Switzerland, Italy and Algiers, moving along Maghreb, and then returned to paint in France, particularly in Auvergne.

In 1843 he was made a Chevalier of the Legion d'Honneur.

Expositions

In 1831 he began exhibiting at the "Salon de Paris", where he won awards four times. In particular, he won the 1st Class Medal in 1839 and 1848. In 1854 he won the First Prize at the Geneva Exhibition.[1] He stopped exhibiting at the "Salon" only in 1857.
